Some of the most acclaimed, sought-after names in fashion, music, literature and cinema unveiled the Blenders Pride Fashion Tour 2014 preview.

Chetan Bhagat, a man who needs no introduction along with actor par excellence Boman Irani, decoded style in their inimitable ways as they brought laughter, geekiness and fun onto the stage.

Funny Man Boman Irani

During the preview event, Indian film and theatre actor, voice artist and photographer, Boman Irani emphasized the co-relation between confidence and Style. From being a photographer to playing diverse acting roles, he has consistently challenged himself to do something different every time and do so well. On his association with the tour, he said, “I am very proud and excited to be associated with Blenders Pride Fashion Tour 2014 as this is one platform which goes beyond fashion and has indeed revolutionized the definition of style for their audience.”

Little Shilpa and Gaurav Gupta

Both these powerhouses need no introduction. After her last outing in the Indian fashion segment, Little Shilpa is a name to be reckoned with. A quick chat with her after the preview has left me waiting for more from her sewing desk. With three unique concepts strung together with the versatility element, the collection is sure to hook onto the viewers. What can one really say about Gaurav? All glamour and glitter with the Greek Goddess collection, he is all set to offer newer concepts of gowns and sari-gowns to the Indian fashionistas after mesmerising and dressing international celebrities.
